Chapter 597
Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng! Han Yu looked at Zhong Kui in front of him and looked confused. What's going on? The image on the roster is not like this? He even directly saved the oral examination because he firmly believed that Zhong Kui was worthy of the top scorer.
Of course, the emperor agreed, this was his trust in Han Yu and the others, and the emperor also planned to summon Zhong Kui to see this talented man recommended by Han Yu, and also asked questions and answers to the monarch and ministers. This was a project that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty liked very much. It was recorded by historians and could also become a beautiful talk in the future.
Han Yu did this to prevent Lu Qi from interfering with the emperor's decision. If three or five people were selected to go to the emperor and let the emperor personally give the top scorer, would you please let Lu Qi's nephew go? If you go, with Lu Qi's help, Zhong Kui may be the second place.
This time Han Yu called Zhong Kui over. He originally wanted to explain to Zhong Kui about meeting the emperor, such as the questions the emperor might ask, and etiquette.
But he didn't expect that Zhong Kui looked like this. This was definitely not the top scorer he thought!
"Zhong Kui, why are you not shaving?"
Zhong Kui was a little embarrassed: "Sir, it's not that the student doesn't shave, but that the beard will grow after it hangs up. Moreover, the student's eyes, mouth, nose, ears are not like this, because the student has a strange disease and is unable to treat it even if he looks for famous doctors."
"If the adults don't believe it, the student will shaved his beard in front of the adults, and will grow like this again without a cup of tea. However, the adults choose students as the top scorer because they are attracted by the students' talent, not the students' appearance, right?"
Han Yu asked someone to bring a razor, and Zhong Kui shaved his beard in front of him. He had never heard of this strange disease before, so he didn't believe it in his heart. But without a cup of tea, Zhong Kui really grew a beard full of his face again!
Han Yu was stunned, not knowing what was going on, so he called several doctors and said that Zhong Kui was not sick. If this was not a disease, it would be a traitor. However, Zhong Kui said that he had been to Taoist temples and temples, what else could he do?
Moreover, Zhong Kui shaved his beard and looked very ugly, so he had no choice but to accept it. However, Han Yu had a bad premonition in his heart.
...
While waiting at the gate of the Golden Palace, Zhong Kui received many strange looks. The guards in front of the hall who were standing guard at the gate of the Golden Palace were constantly glancing at him.
Zhong Kui looks at the nose and the nose, and he wants to calm down. He is already the top scorer. He is about to enter the official career and display his ambitions!
The emperor also read Zhong Kui's answer sheet and was very satisfied with Zhong Kui himself, but when he saw it for the first time, he almost fell off the dragon throne!
Who is this ugly pussy? Zhong Kui? Is this the new top scholar in our Tang Dynasty?
Although he never said that the top scorer should be handsome, he should not be so ugly, right? At least he should be able to watch it.
Zhong Kui felt a sudden slap in his heart when he saw the emperor's expression. Could it be that the emperor really disliked him because of his appearance? But it doesn't matter. He would use his talents to let the emperor know that he became the top scholar because he had real talents and knowledge, which would definitely help the Tang Dynasty become more prosperous!
However, there were still many sounds in the hall that came into Zhong Kui's ears, and all the sounds were telling one thing, that is, they had never seen such an ugly person before!
"How can a person with such an ugly appearance become the new top scorer in our dynasty? How do you check this exam!" The emperor was very unhappy.
Although the top scholar chosen by the emperor before was not all handsome, they were not so ugly. Why did he choose an ugly man when he got to me?
At this time, someone was standing there in the corner of the hall, but no one noticed it. It was Qiu Ming. Qiu Ming came to see if something unexpected happened when he was in the hall. Did Zhong Kui really want to die?
However, seeing that Zhong Kui was indeed rejected by the emperor, Qiu Ming also felt sad for Zhong Kui. Once Zhong Kui becomes the top scholar, with his talent, it will not be difficult to become the prime minister in the future.
At that time, by governing the world, you would definitely gain a lot of merit. If you mention Tiankui Xingjun a little in the future, you would definitely gain a lot of incense.
But if you die, all this will be empty talk!
Hearing the emperor's words, Han Yu immediately came out to kneel down: "The emperor should have heard that Yan Ying was three feet tall, but became the prime minister of Qi. Zhou Chang was a stuttering and could also assist the Han Dynasty. Ziyu was ugly, but he was praised by Confucius many times. A person's strengths and weaknesses are not about appearance, but about talent. I hope the emperor thinks twice."
The emperor thought for a while: "Han Aiqing's words make sense, but during the reign of Emperor Taizong, the eighteen scholars were all handsome. If I chose him as the top scholar, wouldn't I be ridiculed by the world and say that I don't know talents?"
Others can find eighteen handsome guys, but I can’t find any of them here? This is more than a one-eyed person, and he is stuttering.
Originally, Zhong Kui became the top scorer, but Lu Qi had given up on letting his nephew become the top scorer. However, seeing that Zhong Kui was so ugly, all the civil and military officials in the court were also talking about it. In addition, the emperor was dissatisfied with him, so he felt that his nephew's opportunity had come!
"Your Majesty, let me listen to what the old minister said. The top scholar in the Jin Dynasty needs to be cultivated both inside and outside. The top scholar must walk around the streets of Chang'an to let the people see such a person becoming the top scholar. Wouldn't it be a loss of the majesty of our dynasty? There are more than 300 candidates in the subject and thirty Jinshi. Can't another top scholar be selected?"
At Lu Qi's instructions, many ministers also knelt down on the ground: "We also think that we should choose another top scholar."
Han Yu is just a minister of the Ministry of Personnel. How can he be as powerful as Prime Minister Lu Qi? And Han Yu also knows that even if Zhong Kui is blind, he looks much better than he looks now.
In fact, when Han Yu saw Zhong Kui for the first time, he felt it was difficult for him to accept it. Although he should not judge people by his appearance, how many of them can be truly achieved?
How can such people be exiled to be their parents? How can they reflect the majesty of the court when they go to the place? Others will think that the officials in the court look like evil spirits, and will the people still be willing to believe in the court?
"Han Aiqing, you have seen what everyone means. I am not the only one who thinks so. You should consider the list of Jinshi this time, and choose a top scorer again, or simply let the second scorer be replaced and Zhong Kui is the fourth place."
The emperor didn't even want to give Zhong Kui the third grade, which made Zhong Kui feel even more disappointed. He studied hard and finally finished the top scorer in high school, and he had already posted the list.
He wrote a letter to ask someone to send it back to his hometown, so that his sister could find out in advance. Now he suddenly said that he would remove his title as the top scorer because of his appearance. How could he be convinced?
It was not his willingness to become like this, but his talent was not fake. Why can't he be the top scorer?
